Trigger warnings from the slush pile?
Now I see some publishers want advanced warnings before an editor reads a manuscript of trigger words. Since the publishers I am referring to are in horror, well, isn't that ludicrous?
We write about fear, blood, death, mutilation. We write about torture, fright, decomposition...
If an editor has 'issues' when reading something--stop reading it; get help; get pharmaceuticals and a cup.
We are writing horror. If horror scares you to the point of a nervous breakdown, read mysteries. Most modern mysteries are bland and can be figured out in three pages.
My God we are a pathetic lot aren't we.
Trigger warnings are censorship and should be trampled. Any editor or any publisher that posts this garbage should be run put of business for attacking your right to free speech.
Trigger warnings are not progressive, they are regressive and repressive.
Wake up.

#Hiroshima GIVE ME A BREAK
As you are I also on Twitter and came across this gem. In this thread swarms of moon-bats are declaring Harry Truman's decision as 'the greatest act of terrorism ever'. What this string clearly demonstrates is a total lack of intelligence and complete naivety into human nature.
Do you want to measure a public school education? Read this thread and realize no ruler will be required.
And by the way there is no mention of Pearl Harbor or World War II or the atrocities brought by Japan in the far east.
AND finally, I have a bet those posting have no clue who Harry Truman was. I added him.
